mat_phong 0 is my favorite console command. It removes the shinyness from the game and makes it look like beta. Some people say it also increases frame rate but I wouldn't know since mine never drop below 60.

It also allows for some more advanced binding of keys, for example:bind p "explode"Typing that into the console will make it so whenever you press the "P" key, you suicide in an explosion. On it's own it can be useful, but there are even more crazy and advanced bindings you can get into beyond that, such as binds to toggle scripts.

Weird, I bound my p key to explode the other day. And now you bring it up.
